[0062] The present invention will be further illustrated by the following examples. Unless otherwise specified, the materials in the examples are prepared according to existing methods or purchased directly from the market.
[0063] Example 1
[0064] A type of 226 Ra and 210 For the preparation method of the Pb separation composite membrane, see Figure 1 This includes the following steps:
[0065] (a) Weigh 65g of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) and dissolve it in 500ml of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). Stir thoroughly at 50℃ for 24h until a transparent golden yellow color is obtained to obtain PAN solution.
[0066] (b) Add 25g of DtBuCH18C6 to the obtained PAN solution and stir thoroughly at 30°C for 48h until there is no white solid in the solution and the solution turns dark yellow to obtain Dt@PAN solution;
[0067] (c) Add 50 ml of [C6mim][NTf2] solution to the obtained Dt@PAN solution and stir thoroughly at 30°C for 12 h to obtain Dt+C6@PAN spinning solution;
[0068] (d) The obtained Dt+C6@PAN spinning solution was placed in a 10ml syringe and then loaded into an electrospinning machine for spinning to form a film (the nanofibers were received by aluminum foil) to obtain the membrane material.
[0069] (e) The obtained membrane material is cut using a hollow metal cylinder with a diameter of 25 mm to obtain the finished Dt+C6@PAN membrane material, which is the required composite membrane.
[0070] The FT-IR image of the Dt+C6@PAN membrane material obtained in this embodiment is shown below. Figure 2 Thermogravimetric diagram can be found Figure 3 XRD pattern can be found Figure 4 .
[0071] Figure 2 Middle, 2940 cm -1 and 2860 cm -1 The peaks correspond to the asymmetric and symmetric stretching vibrations of the methyl and methylene groups, respectively; 2240 cm⁻¹ -1 The absorption peak at 1730 cm⁻¹ originates from the -C≡N nitrile group of PAN. -1 and 1451 cm -1 The peak at 1370 cm⁻¹ is related to the stretching vibrations of C=O and C=C; -1 and 1010 cm -1 The absorption peak at 569 cm⁻¹ originates from the COC bond of the crown ether; -1 The sharp peak at the point is related to the S=O oscillation of the ionic liquid, which together confirms that DtBuCH18C6 and [C6mim][NTf2] have been successfully dispersed and immobilized in the PAN matrix.
[0072] Figure 3 In the first stage (25 °C - 230 °C), the mass of Dt+C6@PAN gradually decreased, which was attributed to the evaporation of water and DMF; in the second stage, significant weight losses were observed at 301.9 °C, 361.6 °C, and 418.8 °C due to the decomposition of the crown ether ring, ionic liquid, and PAN (-C≡N) group; finally, Dt+C6@PAN lost 65.7% of its initial mass before stabilization.
[0073] Figure 4 In the PAN, a sharp peak appears at 17.1° and a broad peak appears at 26.4°, which is related to the recrystallization of PAN chains during spinning. For Dt@PAN, the main peak of DtBuCH18C6 at 18.2° is retained, but its intensity is reduced, while the small peaks at 6.8° and 9.3° disappear, indicating that the crystallinity is reduced under load. As for Dt+C6@PAN, the characteristic peaks of PAN and [C6mim][NTf2] (12.5° and 20.1°) and the characteristic peak of DtBuCH18C6 have disappeared, indicating that the addition of crown ether and ionic liquid has disrupted the order of PAN chains, and that these two components have been uniformly dispersed in the porous framework of PAN.
[0074] Figure 5 The images show the scanning electron microscope (ad), particle size distribution, and TEM-EDS (em) images of the Dt+C6@PAN membrane material before adsorption of lead and barium ions. Figure 6 The images show the scanning electron microscope (AD) image, particle size distribution map, and TEM-EDS image (EM) of the Dt+C6@PAN membrane material after adsorbing lead and barium ions.
[0075] like Figure 5 (ac) and Figure 6 As shown in (ac), the fiber morphology is clearly visible at magnifications of 200×, 500×, and 4000×, and the structure exhibits obvious uniformity. At a magnification of 500×, the diameter distribution of 200 randomly selected fibers was obtained. Figure 5 (d) and Figure 6 (d) The results showed that the fiber diameter before adsorption was mainly distributed at 1.07 ± 0.33 μm, while it decreased to 0.76 ± 0.21 μm after adsorption. This change is attributed to the hydrophilicity of Dt+C6@PAN, which plays a crucial role in the absorption of Pb. 2+ and Ba 2+ It expands initially and then contracts as water evaporates. TEM-EDS image ( Figure 5 (em) and Figure 6 (em) confirmed the uniform distribution of C, N, O, F and S in the original membrane, and showed the adsorption of Pb²⁺ and Ba. 2+ The signal proves that the ion capture was successful.

[0078] The remaining steps and parameters are the same as in Example 1, and a composite membrane is obtained.
[0079] Compared with Example 1, the composite membrane obtained in this example has an adsorption capacity of 5.27 mg / g for lead ions and an adsorption capacity of 2.19 mg / g for barium ions.
[0080] Example 3
[0081] The only difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that in step (c), [C6mim][NTf2] is replaced with [C8mim][NTf2].
[0082] The remaining steps and parameters are the same as in Example 1, and a composite membrane is obtained.
[0083] Compared with Example 1, the composite membrane obtained in this example has an adsorption capacity of 7.26 mg / g for lead ions and an adsorption capacity of 2.37 mg / g for barium ions.
[0084] Experimental Example 1
[0085] Investigating the effect of different mass fractions of crown ether components on the adsorption of lead and barium ions in the material (Dt@PAN). Figure 7 In the preparation process of the material in Example 1, step (b) was specifically studied, that is, the amounts of DtBuCH18C6 added were 5g, 15g, 25g, 35g and 50g respectively, and after obtaining Dt@PAN solution, electrospinning was performed to form a film, and the process was studied in detail.
[0086] In an environment of T=298.15K, V=10ml, and 1M nitric acid, 10mg of five different membrane materials were added to a solution with lead and barium ion concentrations of 30mg / L for adsorption experiments. The adsorption capacity of each material was obtained, and the optimal ratio (wt%=5) was then determined.
[0087] The optimal mass fraction of DtBuCH18C6 was determined to be 5%, and subsequent experiments were conducted under this condition. Figure 8 The synthesized Dt+C6@PAN membrane materials were stacked (with membrane numbers of 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 10). A solution with a lead and barium ion concentration of 30 mg / L in a 1M nitric acid environment (T=298.15K, V=10ml) was subjected to membrane permeation (T=298.15K). The ion concentration of the permeate solution was then measured to determine the optimal number of membrane layers, which was found to be 8.
[0088] Experimental Example 2
[0089] The adsorption rates of two ions were studied under different acid conditions. Figure 9 A solution with a lead and barium ion concentration of 30 mg / L at T=298.15 K, V=10 ml (in 0.1 M, 0.5 M, 1 M, 3 M, 5 M, and 8 M nitric acid environments) was subjected to a membrane (8-layer membrane) operation (T=298.15 K). The ion concentration of the membrane-treated solution was then measured to determine the optimal adsorption acidity (0.1 M nitric acid environment).
[0090] Adsorption experiments were conducted using a mixed solution, in which Pb 2+ / Ba 2+ The concentration ratios of the interfering substances were 1:0, 1:1, 1:5, 1:10, and 1:50, respectively. When each interfering substance existed alone, the adsorption efficiencies of Pb²⁺ and Ba²⁺ remained essentially unchanged (Pb...). 2+ > 95% and Ba 2+>70%), while the absorption rates of U, Bi, and Co were less than 4%, and the absorption rate of Th was no more than 10%. In the test of coexistence of all four interfering substances, Pb 2+ The adsorption efficiency remains above 95%, Ba 2+ The adsorption efficiency decreased slightly, but remained above 65%, while the adsorption rate of each interfering substance remained below 4%. These results indicate that even when the concentration of interfering substances far exceeds that of Pb... 2+ and Ba 2+ Even at low concentrations, Dt+C6@PAN maintains excellent selectivity for the target ion, highlighting its effectiveness in separating mineral digests containing a large number of competing species. 226 Ra and 210 The great potential of Pb.
[0091] The effect of competitive ion coexistence on the adsorption of lead and barium ions by the material ( Figure 10 (a): A mixed solution with lead and barium ion concentrations of 1 mg / L and uranium concentrations of 0, 1 mg / L, 5 mg / L, 10 mg / L, and 50 mg / L, respectively, was subjected to a membrane pass-through operation at V=10 ml and T=298.15 K. The ion concentrations of the solution after membrane pass-through were then measured to obtain the adsorption rates for the three ions. (bd) The operation procedure is the same as that in a, with the corresponding ions being thorium, cobalt, and bismuth, respectively. (e): With lead and barium ion concentrations of 1 mg / L and the simultaneous presence of uranium, thorium, cobalt, and bismuth ions (at which point the concentrations of the four ions are the same, and the ratios of uranium, thorium, cobalt, and bismuth to lead / barium ions are 1:1, 5:1, 10:1, and 50:1, respectively), a membrane pass-through operation was performed at V=10 ml and T=298.15 K. The ion concentrations of the solution after membrane pass-through were then measured to obtain the adsorption rates for the six ions.
[0092] The adsorption kinetics were analyzed using pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order models. Fitting results show that the pseudo-second-order model better describes the adsorption of Pb. 2+ and Ba 2+ Adsorption behavior of Pb ions 2+ : Nonlinear R 2 = 0.970, linear R 2 = 0.999; Ba 2+ : Nonlinear R 2 = 0.982, linear R 2 = 0.999), indicating that chemisorption is the main mechanism of this process.
[0093] dynamics( Figure 11(a): V=10ml, T=298.15K, lead ion concentration of 30mg / L, 80mg Dt+C6@PAN material was added, and sampling points were taken at time intervals of 1, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, 60, 80, 120, 180, 300, and 540min. The ion concentrations were measured, and the data were further fitted to the kinetic model (second-order kinetics); (a): V=10ml, T=298.15K, barium ion concentration of 30mg / L, 80mg Dt+C6@PAN material was added, and sampling points were taken at time intervals of 1, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, 60, 80, 120, 180, 300, and 540min. The ion concentrations were measured, and the data were further fitted to the kinetic model (second-order kinetics).
[0094] The adsorption data were fitted to Langmuir and Freundlich models. The Langmuir model showed a higher correlation coefficient (Pb). 2+ : Nonlinear R 2 = 0.993, linear R 2 = 0.990; Ba 2+ : Nonlinear R 2 = 0.990, linear R 2 =0.991) and has a low chi-square value (Pb 2+ : χ 2 = 0.483; Ba 2+ : χ 2 = 0.081), indicating better fitting performance. The maximum adsorption capacity (Q) calculated according to the Langmuir model max The following are Pb: 2+ 26.045 mg / g; Ba 2+ The concentration was 11.926 mg / g. These findings confirm that the Langmuir model is more suitable for these two ions, which means that the adsorption sites on Dt+C6@PAN are evenly distributed, which is conducive to monolayer adsorption.
[0095] Isothermal adsorption line ( Figure 12(a): V=10ml, T=298.15K, initial concentrations of lead ion solutions were 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 80, 100, and 150 mg / L, respectively. Adsorption experiments were conducted at t=6h. Lead ion concentrations were measured in the solutions after complete adsorption, and the data were further fitted to an isotherm model (chemisorption). (b): V=10ml, T=298.15K, initial concentrations of barium ion solutions were 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 80, 100, 150, and 180 mg / L, respectively. Adsorption experiments were conducted at t=6h. Barium ion concentrations were measured in the solutions after complete adsorption, and the data were further fitted to an isotherm model (chemisorption).
[0096] Simulated feed elution experiment ( Figure 13 The membrane separation system consists of a flexible tube, a peristaltic pump, and a custom-designed membrane column. Eight membrane layers are stacked inside the column and activated with 10 ml of 0.1 M nitric acid. Then, a stock solution (with lead ion concentration of 10 μg / L and barium ion concentration of 800 μg / L - 2 ml) is added. The feed rate is adjusted by the pump speed and maintained at 0.4 mL / min. Barium and lead ions are eluted with 1 M HNO3 and 0.25 M Na2H2EDTA·2H2O, respectively. 2 ml of eluent is collected in centrifuge tubes, and Pb is determined by ICP-MS. 2 + and Ba 2 + The concentrations of each component were determined, and separation curves were plotted. Experimental results showed that Ba... 2+ Concentrated in 48 mL of solution (impurity Pb) 2+ The content is 0.26 wt%, while Pb 2+ It was concentrated in another 6 mL solution (impurity Ba) 2+ The content is 0.39wt%.

The injection rate was adjusted by the pump speed to maintain 0.4 mL / min, and the sample was rinsed with 1 M HNO3 and 0.25 M Na2H2EDTA·2H2O, respectively. 226 Ra and 210 Pb was collected in centrifuge tubes at 2 ml eluent concentrations. Within a certain time period, the total γ-decay count of the corresponding nuclide in each centrifuge tube was measured using a well-type high-purity germanium analyzer to determine the recovery rate. Repeatability test: The above experiment was repeated four times, and a reuse graph was plotted sequentially.
[0098] 226 Ra was concentrated in 84 mL of solution ( 210 Pb activity accounted for 4.11%. 210 Pb was concentrated in another 20 mL of solution ( 226 Ra activity accounted for 1.26%); 210 The regeneration rate of Pb on Dt+C6@PAN was close to 100%, and the adsorption-desorption performance did not change significantly. In contrast, 226 The adsorption efficiency of Ra decreased slightly from 70.7% to 62.6%, while its desorption efficiency remained around 100%. These results indicate that Dt+C6@PAN exhibits good reusability under practical feeding conditions and is a promising recyclable adsorbent for the separation of radionuclides.
